Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

A pound of cocoa is 16 ounces.

We'll do 8 dollars/ 16 ounces and get = 0.5 dollars per ounce.

Now you can divide 2.25 dollars /0.5 dollars and get 4.5, which is the ounces you can buy with 2.25 dollars.

You can also add 0.5 until you get 2.25.

0.5+0.5= 1 +0.5= 1.5 +0.5= 2 + 0.25 (which is 0.25 because half of 0.5 is 0.25)

      2             3             4           0.5

We can buy 4.5 ounces for  $2.25.

Ounce, a unit of weight in the avoirdupois system, equal to 1/16 pound (437 1/2 grains), and in the troy and apothecaries systems, equal to 480 grains, or 1/12 pound.

How to find how many ounces can be bought for $2.25?

A pound of cocoa is 16 ounces.

We'll do 8 dollars/ 16 ounces and get = 0.5 dollars per ounce.

You can also add 0.5 until you get 2.25.

0.5+0.5= 1 +0.5= 1.5 +0.5= 2 + 0.25
